Ben Carson Explains Why He Compared Obamacare To Slavery

Ben Carson joined Roland Martin on “NewsOne Now” Friday for an exclusive hour-long interview on politics, race and health policy. It was a lively conversation that you have to witness for yourself.

During the hour, Carson identified himself not as Republican or Democrat but a registered Independent who “subscribes to common sense.” He also explained to Martin why he chose to step into the political arena after a long, successful career as a neurosurgeon. Carson also defended his comparison of the Affordable Care Act to the period of American slavery.
